Gottorf Office

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Gottorf Office (Danish: Gottorp Office ) was a sovereign administrative unit in the Duchy of Schleswig .

history

The Gottorf office emerged from the Harden around Gottorf Castle. Today's Gottorf Castle is located on the site of the castle - first mentioned around 1161 . The office extended south of the Flensburg office from the fishing region to the Treene and Sorge rivers . In the late Middle Ages (approx. 1250 to 1500) the Gottorf office still included the Husum office, the Hütten office and the Hohner Harde .

After the office of Hütten and the Hohner Harde were separated, the Vogtei Treia and the Füsingharde were added from the Schwabstedt office in 1702 . In 1711, the Stapelholm region was separated from the Gottorf office. In 1713 the Bollingstedt Bailiwick was incorporated and in 1771 the Satrupholm estate . After the separation of the Hohner Harde in 1853, the Gottorf office had an area of ​​907 km². In 1867, the area became part of the Schleswig district , which was newly formed in the Schleswig-Holstein province and in 1974 in turn became part of the Schleswig-Flensburg district.
